Summary of the contracting process

The Student Loans Company procured services to migrate PRM to Planner, including associated travel and decommissioning work. The requirement sits within software packages and information systems and is classified as a service. Delivery was in Scotland, for the company based at Clyde Place in Glasgow. The work concerned the migration of an existing system or capability into Planner and the subsequent decommissioning element. This is a technology implementation and transition requirement rather than the supply of off-the-shelf software alone, so relevant businesses are likely to be those providing programme delivery, software migration, system transition and decommissioning services for public sector or other complex organisations.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Corporate Project Solutions. The award date was 4 August 2025, with an initial awarded value of £175,014 excluding VAT. Contract delivery ran from 11 August 2025 to 31 December 2025. The tender submission deadline was 8 July 2025. An update recorded two contract change notices: £3,000 was added for travel costs and £30,000 for the decommissioning element, bringing the revised contract amount to £208,014 excluding VAT. The process was evaluated as a services procurement, and the available record describes the procurement method as not specified. The opportunity was not identified as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community or social enterprises.

This award demonstrates demand from the Student Loans Company for specialist technology migration and transition support centred on PRM and Planner. A credible future competitor would need to show practical experience of moving systems or operational capabilities into Planner, managing dependencies and service continuity, and completing controlled decommissioning. The scope also indicates a need to plan and deliver travel where required, alongside the technical work. The buyer selected a large supplier and the requirement was not marked as suitable for SMEs, suggesting that future competitors should be able to demonstrate substantial delivery capacity, experienced implementation staff and the ability to manage a defined migration programme through to close-out. Businesses with public sector transformation experience and evidence of handling comparable software and information-system changes would be best placed.
